Summary

Sedalia Elementary's academic performance, as measured by the Ohio State Tests, is generally below the state average and the performance of the Groveport Madison Local School District. In the 2024-2025 school year, the school's proficiency rates ranged from 43.9% to 72.9% across different grade levels and subject areas, compared to the state averages of 61.3% to 69.1%. The school's performance has been relatively consistent over the past few years, with its statewide ranking ranging from 901 to 1110 out of 1,588 to 1,610 Ohio elementary schools. However, the school's African American students perform significantly better than the overall school performance, with their statewide ranking ranging from 57 to 144 out of 603 to 615 Ohio elementary schools.

Sedalia Elementary faces significant challenges in terms of student attendance, with high rates of chronic absenteeism ranging from 21.7% to 36.4% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than the state average. Additionally, a large proportion of the school's students, ranging from 62.5% to 73.4%, are eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population. While Sedalia Elementary's performance is generally on par with or slightly better than the nearby Madison Elementary and Dunloe Elementary, it lags behind the nearby charter schools, such as Performance Academy Eastland and Zenith Academy East, which have higher academic proficiency rates in some subject areas.
